Property details

Keating Estates are delighted to present to market this charming two bedroom first floor Victorian flat, offering bright and characterful accommodation with impressive ceiling heights, generous storage and a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. Quiet and tranquil, yet surrounded by a friendly local community, this is a home that combines the best of London convenience with a lovely village-like feel.

The reception room is a particularly inviting space, with leafy views, tall ceilings and plenty of room for a large lounging sofa as well as a dedicated work-from-home area. Striking wallpaper and trailing plants add warmth and personality, while the high ceilings create an uplifting sense of space.

The separate kitchen is smartly arranged, with neutral cabinetry, dark work surfaces and matching splashbacks, a gas hob, oven, dishwasher, washing machine and full-height fridge freezer. A large window brings in plenty of natural light and provides an attractive outlook.

The principal bedroom is spacious and characterful, with fitted wardrobes, a charming large window with panelled surround and excellent ceiling height, while retaining space for a desk or dressing table. The second bedroom has been cleverly designed around a built-in storage bed, side wardrobe and high-level cupboards, making excellent use of the room without compromising its versatility. Centrally set within the home, the bathroom is tastefully but neutrally presented with a bathtub and overhead shower, alongside further clever storage solutions.

Throughout the property, storage has been thoughtfully maximised, including bespoke bathroom cupboards and additional high cupboards ideal for suitcases. There is also access to a shared ground-floor shed, providing useful additional storage.

The home has remained completely free from damp, providing a comfortable and reassuring environment throughout the year, while the exceptionally friendly neighbours and local businesses contribute to its welcoming, community-minded atmosphere.

On the doorstep there is a local café plus further variety of pubs, further cafes and shops just a four-minute walk away at the top of the street. The green open spaces of Slade gardens and Myatt’s Field Park are both a leisurely six-minute walk.

Loughborough Road itself is a characterful and leafy street within a ten-minute walk of central Brixton, offering its vast array of amenities and eateries, including Brixton Village, the upmarket Upstairs members club, Ritzy cinema and high-street shops and supermarkets.

Brixton and Stockwell tube stations provide access to the Northern and Victoria tube lines, plus the Overground service at Brixton and trains from Loughborough Junction. There is an extensive bus network straight up Brixton Road to Oval, through to Waterloo and then the City or West End.

Oval itself is fifteen-minutes’ walk away whilst Camberwell and Kings College Hospital are both within eighteen.

Brixton is a melting pot of culture, cuisine and creativity. An explosion of inventive, new restaurants, pop-ups, fashion stores and art galleries sit alongside the many great pubs, music venues and nightclubs that have been around for years. Transport links are excellent, with London Underground (Victoria Line) trains reaching central London in 12 minutes. If you’re craving green space, Brockwell Park and its famed Art Deco lido are close by. Brixton brings together all the best things about London and is one of the most vibrant and diverse places to live south of the river.
